South Delhi civic body launches mobile app for property taxpayers

NEW DELHI: A new mobile application was on Thursday launched by the South Delhi Municipal Corporation to facilitate people in paying property tax online amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, officials said. The new app has been made for all three city corporations, the SDMC said in a statement.

“In order to facilitate property taxpayers, South Delhi Municipal Corporation today launched a new mobile application. This application has been launched for property taxpayers of all three municipal corporations,” it said.
